Between the lemon verbenas were fragrant-leaved geraniums of many flavours rose, nutmeg, lemon, and one with a sharp peppermint odour, also a skeleton-leaved variety; while a low-growing plant with oval leaves and half-trailing habit and odd odour, Mrs. Puffin called apple geranium, though it does not seem to favour the family. Do you know it?
The only remarks he volunteered in all that time were, 'Hev a peppermint, miss! Dew now-fine thing for carARRH, peppermints, and, 'Powerful lot o' jump-grasses round here ternight. Yep. "But there is a love affair going on here. It seems to be my fortune to be mixed up, more or less actively, with elderly love affairs. Mr. and Mrs. Irving always say that I brought about their marriage. Mrs.
Whitman, I don't know the exact minute Miss Hart gave her that confounded peppermint, and Miss Hart seems rather misty about it, and if the girl knows she won't tell; but I suspect I may be the last person who saw that poor woman alive.
She was moving about, her novel under her arm and her peppermint box in her hand, holding up her gown daintily in front. She spoke to everybody affably, and told a number confidentially that her daughter was very delicate about her eating, but she herself believed in eating what you liked. Harriet and Harry Liscom were still missing, and so were the younger daughter, Sarah, and the boy.
All the difference in the honey was this: in Romalia the bees fed more on clover, and the honey tasted of clover: and in the country across the river on peppermint, and that honey tasted of peppermint. They always had both kinds at their Bee Festivals. All children have wondered unceasingly from their very first Christmas up to their very last Christmas, where the Christmas presents come from.
That love-token was a lozenge a small disk, I have reason to believe, concocted of peppermint and sugar, bearing upon its reverse surface the simple words, 'I love you! I have since ascertained that these disks may be bought for five cents a dozen or at considerably less than one half-cent for the single lozenge.
But Grandmother was so upset about the Twins getting bumped, that she forgot and put in a peppermint instead. When church was over and they were out on the street again, Grandmother said, "Now you are coming home with me to stay all night." "Really and truly?" said the Twins. "And may we go with Grandfather to carry the milk in the morning?" "Yes," said Grandfather, "and Kit may drive the dogs."
As we passed up the after-companionway, I looked into the case and endeavored to interest the skipper in drugs for the men in case of sickness. He showed me a bottle of arnica, one of squibbs, another of peppermint, and many other drugs used as simple remedies. At the end of a long row was one containing a white powder, unlabelled.
Stoughton, Michigan, presented itself as a ramshackled, filthy wooden town of bar-rooms, eating-rooms, pool-rooms, and unspeakable hotels. The joys and excitements he had known over such deals as the buying and selling of the Catapult, the Peppermint, and the Etna mines were as flat now as the lees of yesternight's feast.
Now I'll read another: "This isn't a letter, dear Marjorie Mops, It's only a promise of Peppermint Drops!" "Every one is nicer than the last! And now for the very last one of all!" Marjorie cut open the fourth envelope, and read: "Dear Mopsy Midget, this isn't a letter; It's only a promise of something much better!"
